The Wit And Wisdom Of Cal Thomas

by Cal Thomas; Wayne Stayskal

You know Cal Thomas as a popular newspaper columnist and an influential Christian journalist. His sharp-witted writings are a clarion call to all who cherish traditional ideals and values. His tough analysis of current events encourages the lost American art of critical thinking, yet his tender-heartedness toward the disadvantaged will motivate readers to change their worlds for the good of their fellow man. This collection of wit and wisdom from Cal Thomas is culled from years of his columns, broadcasts, and speeches. A wide variety of topics are covered from drugs, education, freedom, history, and marriage, to religion, the presidency, foreign affairs, Hollywood, and the media. Cal's direct, to-the-point message targets readers everywhere, challenging them to consider the world today in the shining light of truth, and make an impact on the world around them.

I find it funny that a twenty year old book has so much that is relevant to the 2016 elections (ahem...hillary!). while much of the material is dated, there is plenty here both to remind us of the big stories of yesterday and to reinforce the fact that there is truly nothing new under the sun. The moral challenges we face today have been faced in the past. our job is to remain faithful.

This book has been on my reading list for quite some time. Surprisingly, I found it at a thrift store for one dollar and quickly purchased it. This is a collection of quotes and snippets from the author's various newspaper columns and books. To read this book was very refreshing, especially in the day and age in which we now live. (If I'm not mistaken, the book was published in 2001. Amazing how the author's insights still ring true today.) All of the printed material are stand-alone segments that can't be taken out of context. There are quite a few I will add as my email signature byline in the days and weeks to come. Of course you would probably need to be a right-wing conservative in order to even want to read or appreciate this book. Maybe not?! Anyway, may this book become an introduction into the remainder of the author's published works. I know it will be for me. Happy reading!
